Chapter 225 Ursula
Chapter 225 Ursula
Outside the imperial city, a convoy was running fast, heading straight to the south.
"Are we leaving just like that, Father?" Joao Roger looked at the imperial city unwillingly. He was reluctant to leave his family business in the imperial city.
"What else? Are we waiting for the emperor to chop off our heads?" Benson Roger said unhappily, "Your grandfather has already surrendered. Do you think the emperor can spare us?"
Joao fell silent. His grandfather was Loreford Roger, who was the symbol of the Roger family. Even the symbol of the family had turned against them. Needless to say, everyone would think that the entire Roger family had betrayed them.
Given the brutality of the empire, if the Roger family didn't run away, they would definitely lose their heads.
"How could Grandpa make such an irrational decision?" Qiao Ao asked puzzledly, "No matter how much he cares about the civilians, he shouldn't betray the empire!"
"Your grandfather was also helpless." Benson sighed, "His life was controlled by others. Once he died, our entire family would still be doomed to die."
"No way, grandpa is a demigod, who can control him?" Qiao didn't believe it. In his impression, his grandfather's back was always broad and solid. He didn't believe that anyone could kill his grandpa, let alone control him.
"I don't believe it either." Benson shook his head, "But the facts are right in front of me, I can't help but believe it."
"Okay, be quiet. We're almost at the pass. We'll tell you the details after you see grandpa."
"Yes."
The meeting in the palace was also adjourned.
Nordel III did not give any specific measures, but everyone knew that what would follow would be the emperor's wrath.
But now, His Majesty the Emperor was kneeling beside the bed, his face numb, like a puppet.
On the bed was a woman wearing a golden bathrobe, with a rosy face and charming eyes. She was obviously a stunning beauty at first glance.
In fact, she is also the most beautiful person in the empire, the Empress of the Empire, Ursula Morton.
She took an emerald pipe, took a puff from the golden mouthpiece, and then exhaled, blowing the choking smoke into Nordel III's face.
Nordel III did not respond. The woman tapped her pipe and said, "See, this is the consequence of not paying attention to strength. An empire master is being controlled by me and has no way to stop him."
"But it's really a headache. I'm not very good at fighting, especially with two chosen ones watching me."
"Why not just run away with the money? I've made enough money over the years anyway."
However, even though she said that, the woman had no intention of getting up. She still couldn't stand this anger.
It’s like you are eating alone, and just about to enjoy the last bit of delicious food, when suddenly someone appears out of nowhere, overturns your table and food, and tries to beat you to death.
How could a woman endure such humiliation? From her past life to now, she has always been successful.
"Brandon is such a loser. He can't even beat a hero. I spent so many resources in vain." Urasu tapped his pipe again in annoyance.
In the face of absolute strength, any calculation is useless. She thought that her strength had returned to that of a demigod and that no one should be able to stop her, but she didn't expect that a Pillar Hero would suddenly appear.
If it was just an ordinary hero, it would be fine, and I could deduce it from the people around him, but this hero seemed to have jumped out of a stone, with almost no trace.
Even though she had sent people to try to find him, the information they collected was very limited.
The only person who seemed to be somewhat related was the Empress Chongming. She was also afraid of that woman, so how could she dare to make any inferences?
It's incomprehensible, really incomprehensible!
Wu Lasu tapped her pipe impatiently, faster and faster, and then she heard a low sound in her ears.
"Do you need me to provide information? Wu Lasu." This made her face suddenly tense, and then she said respectfully: "I don't need to trouble you with this little thing, Your Majesty."
"A small matter? This is a matter of life and death." The deep voice carried a hint of teasing, "The Pillar Hero is rushing towards you with all his strength, and he already knows your identity."
“If you know, you know. I just need to escape before he comes. The world is so big, there is no way he can find me.” Úrsula sneered.
"Yeah, just run away before he gets here." The voice seemed to sigh, and then changed the subject, "But he has already asked someone to keep an eye on you?"
"Who?" Ursula narrowed her eyes.
A deep voice said: "I will give you another piece of information for free. The Night Moon Sword is the companion of our Pillar Hero."
Yeyue Divine Sword, Yelin!
Úrsula immediately sat up from the bed. This news was indeed a bit shocking. It was unheard of that the Virgin Goddess's chosen one actually had a partner.
Thinking quickly, Ursula asked, "Since she knew it was me, why didn't she do anything?"
"Maybe you're preparing to eat a richer meal. That Pillar Hero has the power of purification." The deep voice said, "He's waiting for you to fall into despair and become my chosen one."
"So you think that in this situation, I will still join you and become your chosen one?" Ursula said expressionlessly.
"Because you have no choice." The deep voice was filled with joy. "As the saying goes, you will be killed if you stick your head out or hide it. The Pillar Hero always cuts the grass at its roots. Regardless of whether you are my chosen one or not, you, the queen, are already the one he must kill."
“I have no grudge against him, so why are you forcing me like that?” Úrsula said.
"The festival is not important. What's important is that he wants to rebuild the empire. Well, I actually like to see this." The deep voice said, "And it is inevitable that the new king will kill the old king."
"So make a choice, to sit and wait for death, or to grasp my slim hope and get out of this desperate situation."
"Let me think about it carefully." Ursula said with a gloomy expression.
The deep voice didn't seem surprised: "Hold on tight, let me take a look. It shouldn't be more than half an hour before the hero arrives."
half an hour?
Úrsula jumped out of bed, went to the balcony and looked into the distance.
After a few flashes of light appeared in his eyes, his pupils shrank.
Hundreds of miles away, Ash, who was controlling the floating city to fly over, also raised his eyebrows.
He felt someone was staring at him, and the gaze was quite strong, so he used his [Fire Eyes] to look back, and then he saw a strange woman looking at him.
Combining the surrounding buildings and thinking about it, Ash already knew who she was, Ursula, the Queen of the Empire and the hidden Chosen One of Tzeentch.
But the more he looked at her, the more Ash felt that she looked familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere before.
After thinking about it carefully, Ash realized that he had not seen her in person, but had seen her portrait in the hidden demiplane of the floating city.
'Reincarnation? Or a new look?'
Based on his intuition, Ash was certain that the original owner of the floating city was the Queen of the Empire, but he was not sure about her specific situation.
But it doesn’t matter, just ask in person.
Ash grinned at her, his smile full of chill.
Úrsula's expression also turned completely gloomy.
